Instructions
Slice peeled potatoes into thin slices at ½-cm wide to ensure a quicker cooking process. Tip: if you have a mandolin slicer, carefully use that for a quicker preparation. Soak potato slices in cold water for a couple of minutes and strain the excess starch. Shake out as much excess water as possible and dry the potatoes with a clean paper towels.
Heat vegetable oil in a large pan on medium-high heat. Then fry garlic and red chilli. Tip: turn on the stove and avoid inhaling the red chilis as they can cause you to cough uncontrollably.
Add shredded potatoes and toss with aromatics.
Season with salt, regular soy sauce, sugar, and sesame oil. Mix well. Cook for 6-8 minutes until potatoes are tender to taste. Be careful not to overcook them or they will soften and loose their crispness.
Finally add green onions and white vinegar. Toss again and serve hot to enjoy!
